Note: Although this document was created using Office 2000 Software, similar procedures could be used for Office XP.
Pre-Installation Process
1. If you have purchased your software from our Site License office, it is highly recommended that you purchase a copy of the Microsoft Office CDROM from them also. For $25.00 it is worth the time you will save in trying to arrange to borrow the CD from the site license office. You don’t have to purchase a copy for each PC, just one for your department. You will need the CD after the initial install to perform updates. Note: please check the Site License web site: http://www.hawaii.edu/sitelic/microsoft/applic_price.html for current pricing.
2. Clean your hard drive! At a minimum you should run Disk Cleanup to remove unneeded files. You can access the program from the Start-Programs- Accessories-System Tools menu.
3. Some new computers may come with the Small Business version of Office 2000. You must uninstall this version before attempting to install another version of Office 2000. Click on Start-Settings-Control Panel to open the control panel window and double-click on Add/Remove Programs. Locate and highlight the Office software in the window and click on the Add/Remove button. Follow the instructions to uninstall the software.
Page 1 Installing MS Office 2000 Professional WIN1010 4. Find the README.DOC on the CDROM and print it out. Check for any instructions that you need to follow or steps to perform before starting the installation. You can do Step 4 while reviewing this document.
For example, the document recommends disabling your antivirus software while performing the install.
5. Organize your hard drive! Next run the Disk Defragmenter from the same menu as Disk Cleanup. Note that this can take hours to run. It just depends on how often you defrag your hard drive.
Installing Software
There are several ways of installing Microsoft Office 2000. You can install it from a server, install it from your local hard drive or install it from a CDROM. There are pros and cons for using the different methods of installation but that’s beyond the scope of this document. The example below is the process for installing Office from a CDROM.
You should note that you might see different screens than what is presented in this document. This is normal and a result of the state (what software is already installed, patches and/or updates applied, etc.) of the PC at the time of install.
INSTALLATION GUIDE FOR MS OFFICE 2000 PROFESSIONAL:
1. Apply any recommended changes from the README.DOC to your computer.
2. Insert the Microsoft Office 2000 Professional CD into your CDROM drive. The install software should auto start. If it doesn’t, Click on Start-Run and type D:SETUP.EXE. Replace the D: with the appropriate drive letter for your CDROM if it is not D.
Microsoft is using a new installation application called Windows Installer. If you have not previously installed any applications that use this program, the Installer will be placed on your PC. You will be notified that you will need to restart your PC to activate the Windows Installer. Once you have restarted your PC the installation of Office will continue.
